Citizens
concerned about the lack of immigration enforcement are urged to consider
FLIMEN FedPAC endorsements when choosing a candidate for elected office. Now
is the time for concerned citizens to vote for candidates endorsed by
FLIMEN.

Marco Rubio AMNESTY Man

Candidate Rubio knew he would have a tough uphill fight if he was
going to defeat Governor Charlie Crist. He also understood that the
overwhelming majority of Floridians wanted something done to stop illegal
immigration. Rubio’s own
track record on enforcement was going to be an impediment to winning the
election. After all, citizens across Florida were dogging him at campaign
events about blocking six illegal immigration enforcement bills
as Speaker. These six enforcement bills included denying public benefits
to illegal aliens, denying public jobs to illegal aliens, and a memorandum
of understanding between local law enforcement and federal law enforcement
to remove criminal aliens. It should be noted, as a Junior State
Representative, Rubio co-sponsored Representative Juan Zapata’s Dream Act bill.
At that time, Representative Rubio joined the Hispanic Caucus, which would
later describe these six enforcement bills as
“Draconian Measures”.

Rubio’s
Plan to Defeat Governor Crist

Two things happened that would set the course for a Rubio victory.
The immigration issue came up and Charlie Crist said he supported amnesty.
When Rubio saw the reaction of citizens to Crist’s support of amnesty, he
knew all he had to do to seal the deal was take an anti-amnesty stand and
he would be the next senator from Florida. After all, being anti-amnesty
had worked for his predecessor, Senator Mel Martinez, who ran on an
anti-amnesty platform, then went on to join Senator McCain in drafting the
2007 amnesty bill. The similarities between Martinez’s actions and Rubio
has earned Rubio the nickname “Little Mel.”

Big Mel and “Little Mel”

Once this new campaign strategy was formulated, it had to be
implemented. First order of business would be to convince voters that he
was now a pro enforcement candidate. Rubio began courting the Tea Party
groups and a meeting was arranged by Shark Tank Blogger
Javier Manjarres with the leaders ofFloridians
for Immigration Enforcement. This group
had been instrumental in promoting the six pro-enforcement bills and had
put the word out about Rubio blocking the bills.

Attending that hour-long meeting were FLIMEN's
VP David Caulkett, FLIMEN's Legislative Director Jack Oliver, FLIMEN Board
Member John Parsons, Tea Party of Fort Lauderdale Leader, Danita Kilcullen,
and a concerned local activist. At that meeting, Rubio listened to our
concerns, and then assured us that he would oppose any form of
legalization. This included the Dream Act and Amnesty. Candidate Rubio
also pledged to support E-Verify.

Rubio’s message to voters was clear, he would not support any form
of legalization because amnesty didn’t work. Now he’s insulting his
constituents and all Americans by saying this current bill is not amnesty.
Don’t just take our word on Rubio’s 2009-2010 message to Floridians, hear
it from Candidate Rubio in this taped interview from the
Shark Tank.

Michelle Malkin coined the phrase “Culture of Corruption “in her book
about Obama. The term is also fitting when discussing Marco Rubio's
career. There’s big money to be had by all involved in the movement to
flood America with cheap labor, both illegal and legal. And there is
always plenty of money flowing from these businesses into the campaign
chest of politicians, plus that golden parachute waiting at retirement to
loyal politicians that play ball. Since
2007 there has been a tsunami of money flowing into Washington for
amnesty. Business interests have put $1.5 billion dollars that we know
about into this push for cheap labor. Jennifer Horn,
who was President George W. Bush's director of
Hispanic and Women's Affairs during the 2007 negotiations summed things up
with this
"There's two things that speak to elected officials: one is money, and the
other is the vote,"

Since
2007 there has also been a flood of lies and misinformation coming out
about the need for more cheap labor in the country. The propaganda tool is
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will
eventually come to believe it”.
This has worked well for proponents of cheap illegal labor in the past.
Remember these lies “They’re just doing jobs Americans won’t do” and
“E-Verify is a flawed system.” These two lies were used to destroy
American jobs in the service and construction sector. Now the drum beating
is we don’t have enough workers to fill job openings. Allowing 11+ million
illegal aliens to be legalized with more illegals to follow will be the
final blow to the poor and middle class workers. Increasing the number of
visas for
science, technology, engineering and math workforce
(STEM) will be devastating to new college graduates.

Billionaire Bill Gates of Microsoft kicked off the lie nationally in
congressional testimony in 2007.
Gates told Congress on Wednesday that the “United States should welcome an
“infinite” number of high-skilled foreign workers to fill engineering,
computer programming and other jobs that otherwise would go vacant.”

Lou
discusses recent studies that prove that there is no "tech" shortage in
the United States and no need for foreign workers under the often abused
H-1B program. Includes clip of Bill Gates testifying before Congress
asking for unlimited H-1B visas.

The claim
that there is a shortage of American STEM workers available doesn’t make
sense because wages have remained flat. Labor shortages always cause wages
to rise until demand is met.

· Over the
past decade IT employment has gradually increased, but it only recovered
to its 2000–2001 peak level by the end of the decade.

·Wages have
remained flat, with real wages hovering around their late 1990s levels.

·For every
two students that U.S. colleges graduate with STEM degrees, only one is
hired into a STEM job.

·In computer
and information science and in engineering, U.S. colleges graduate 50
percent more students than are hired into those fields each year. Of the
computer science graduates not entering the IT workforce, 32 percent say
it is because IT jobs are unavailable, and 53 percent say they found
better job opportunities outside of IT occupations. These responses
suggest that the supply of graduates is substantially larger than the
demand for them in industry.

There was
not a shortage of Americans to fill STEM jobs in 2007 and there is no
shortage now. This is an effort to drive Americans out of the market and
replace them with cheap foreign labor. Dumping cheap labor on the STEM
sector will have the same effect as the Japanese dumping cheap steel in
America. It drove American out of the steel industry.

Many conservatives across the country are scratching their heads
wondering why self-proclaimed Reagan conservative Marco Rubio is putting
forth this amnesty scheme.

The answer is simple, Rubio is not a
Reagan conservative. Rubio is a Bush-like establishment RINO who believes
in open borders and corporate welfare. Rubio has never been uncomfortable
laying the cost of illegal immigration on taxpayers. As Speaker of the
Florida House Rubio blocked 6 illegal immigration enforcement bills
introduced to protect the taxpayers of Florida. The result of Rubio’s
actions are still being felt today. To date, Floridians have paid over 25
billion dollars to educate, medicate, and incarcerate illegal aliens and
hundreds of thousands of Floridians remain unemployed while illegal aliens
go to work. Being a puppet for Chamber of Commerce and businesses that
use illegal labor has served Rubio well. Groomed by Jeb Bush and funded by
Karl Rove’s PAC, Rubio has skyrocketed from the State House, to the
Senate, with eyes on the White House in 2016.

Marco Rubio “Jeb Bush’s Apprentice”

Rubio has attained a rock star status
and has been touted as the Republican Party savior. Rubio isn’t a
conservative or a Republican savior. His actions will fracture the
Republican base, increase Democrat voting rolls, and end any chances of
Republicans regaining the White House or Senate. Amnesty spells defeat in
the future for all Republican candidates. Granting amnesty to 11+ million
illegal aliens that fall in the working poor classification will increase
welfare rolls and add to everyone’s tax burden. To understand Rubio’s
motivation we need to explore where this rising Republican star came from.

Rubio’s political career actually
started in 1996 in a Miami coffee shop when he interviewed for a job to
work on the Dole campaign.
Al
Cardenas, Jeb Bush’s money man,
hired Rubio on the spot and was first to bring Marco Rubio to the
attention of Jeb Bush. Cardenas is a longtime Republican power broker, who
served three terms as Vice-Chairman and two terms as Chairman of the
Republican Party of Florida. He was also appointed to the Executive
Committee of the Republican Party, the highest policy-making board at the
Republican National Committee. He was the first Hispanic to lead a major
state party and remains the only Hispanic Republican Party Chairman in
Florida history. He has been named as one of Washington D.C.’s top
lobbyists by The Hill
newspaper.
It was during the Dole campaign that Rubio meet longtime friend David
Rivera, who would become a state legislator and conspire with Rubio to
block six immigration enforcement bills.

In 1998
Rubio ran and won a seat on the West Miami City Commission which
encompasses a tiny .7 sq. miles of area with a very dense population of
5900 dominated by a Hispanic population comprising 84% of the total with
Spanish being the dominant language in 87% of the households. He also
married that same year a former Dolphins cheerleader and they now have
four children.

In 1999
Rubio ran and easily won the seat in his district to the Florida
legislature. Rubio has always been ambitious, working to forge alliances
that would ensure his star would continue to rise.
"He had his eye on
leadership from the very, very beginning, and he did all the things he
needed to do,"said former Rep.
Renier Diaz de la Portilla, who shared an apartment with him in
Tallahassee.
During the time he was there he was chosen Majority Whip, Majority Leader
and Speaker of the House. Rubio served in the state legislature from
2000-2008 until term limited out.

Follow the Money

I’ll scratch your back, you scratch
mine seems to work well for Rubio and Karl Rove, the architect of the
“RINOfication”movement of
the Republican Party. Rove’s political action committee American Crossroadsand its sister group Grassroots Policy Strategies (GPS) were the brainchild of Rove and former RNC chairman Ed
Gillespie. These groups were among Rubio’s earliest backers, spending
nearly $3 million dollars on Rubio’s 2010 Senate Race. Ads supporting
Rubio from the nonprofit
GPS triggered letters from two campaign finance watchdog organizations to
the IRS. They requested the IRS investigate whether GPS was violating
federal tax laws pertaining to tax except nonprofit 501(c) (4) group.
Another significant point is that nonprofits do not have to release the
donor’s names.

The
favor was soon returned when Rubio,
According to a report by Bloomberg Business Week, during a fundraising breakfast at the 2012 Republican National
Convention, Rubio spoke along with Rove in front of 70 of the Republican
Party's most influential donors." Helping Crossroads make their sales
pitch, Rubio said it was "big news when Karl Rove sent me a check" during
his Senate race. Rubio specifically praised Crossroads GPS for running ads
to support him and told donors that giving to groups like Rove's was "a
patriotic endeavor."

Besides dumping money Rubio’s way, Rove is never at a loss for praising
Rubio, saying that “we need more Marco Rubios.” Comparing him to Ronald
Reagan Rove says "he's the best communicator since Ronald Reagan."

Rubio lied to Tea Party members in the 2010 senate race saying that he
would never support amnesty.
He even said Reagan made a mistake signing the amnesty, because it only caused a wave of new illegal immigration.
Rove,
who is at war for the heart and soul of the Republican Party said
"Crossroads is second to none in our support of Tea Party candidates, we
spent $2.9 million for Marco Rubio, more than any other group." Let’s be
clear here, Rove isn’t’ interested in backing Tea Party candidates, he’s
out to destroy the Tea Party. Remember Rove was the architect behind
Bush’s let’s outspend the Democrats plan and take the spending issue away
from Democrats. The Tea Party movement was formed because of reckless
spending policies of Bush, designed by Karl Rove. Tea Party members across
the country should remember who Rubio considers stakeholders in this
illegal immigration issue. It’s not the taxpayers, Rubio won’t mind
pushing the 2.6 trillion dollar price tag of amnesty on taxpayers any more
than he minded sticking the 3.8 billion illegal immigration cost to
Floridians when he was Speaker.

FOLLOW
THE LINKS TO THE MONEY BEHIND RUBIO, HE’S GOT MORE BAGGAGE THAN A CARNIVAL
CRUISE SHIP!

Fuel
distributor
Max Alvarez,
owner of a company called Sunshine State Gasoline Distributors, got a deal
slipped into the state House budget by his virtual “son” Marco in 2008. He
donated $7,500 to one of Rubio’s political action committees in 2003 —
committees which would ultimately take in hundreds of thousands of
dollars, and pave Rubio’s way to the Speakership.

Florida House Speaker Marco Rubio quietly slipped tough-to-spot language
in a state budget plan last week that helps a friend and political
money-man bid on a major fuel contract in a $265 million turnpike overhaul
proposal.

This is the second year in a row that South Florida fuel distributor Max
Alvarez has relied on the man he has said is ''like a son'' to push the
budget language to ensure he can more easily bid for the job.

Sergio Pino,
owner of Century Home Builders, who in 2000 was appointed by Jeb to serve
on the state’s transportation committee. Pino gave $10,000 to Rubio’s
leadership PAC, and who sits on the board of US. Century Bank, which in
2005 gave Rubio a
$135,000 home equity loan
on his newly purchase house in Miami, based on an appraisal well above
other homes in the area — a loan Rubio then failed to disclose in his
financial filings. The bank later received
more bailout money than any bank in Florida
(which
Rubio had no control over.)

In December 2005, he bought a new, larger house a few blocks away on SW
13th Street for $550,000; he took out a $495,000 mortgage.

The fishy part: A month after Rubio purchased the home, U.S. Century Bank
reappraised the house at $735,000 and then offered him a new $135,000 home
equity loan that the speaker gladly accepted. U.S. Century's board of
directors included Sergio Pino -- a mega developer who allied with Rubio
on a key vote against slot machines -- as well as GOP lobbyist Rodney
Barreto and consultant Jose Cancela. Essentially, a bank controlled by
supporters printed Rubio $135K out of thin air.

Another
ally,
Nora Cereceda
bought that West Miami house in
2007, at a time her chiropractor son, Dr. Mark Cereceda, happened to be
lobbying the then-House speaker against a bill that would have eased the
requirement for all Florida drivers to have Personal Injury Protection
(PIP) insurance. Rubio had been leaning toward abolishing the coverage
requirement. Nora Cereceda paid $380,000 cash for the home — earning the
Rubios a $205,000 profit, even as the housing market soured. Rubio has
called it an “arm’s length” transaction. He later removed the House block
on the insurance provision, which allowed the state to extend the
requirement that drivers carry $10,000 in PIP coverage. According to
property records, the West Miami home is now worth approximately $215,000.

Ray Sansom,
who preceded Rivera as Rubio’s handpicked budget chief, who succeeded him
as Speaker, now sits under indictment for allegedly
steering public money to a crony
who wanted to build an airplane hangar, and who had arranged a college
professorship for Sansom.

"Rubio is the Godfather
of Tallahassee's Republican culture of corruption.
As disgraced former Speaker Ray Sansom's mentor, Rubio taught Sansom how
to personally benefit from bringing home the bacon. After delivering
millions of tax dollars for Florida International University, Rubio turned
around and got a $69,000 per year part-time job at the school... sound
familiar? Unfortunately, that is only the tip of the iceberg to Rubio's
ethics problems. As Speaker, Rubio was involved in countless ethics
scandals revolving around sweetheart mortgages, legislative favors for big
donors, highway contracts, and other shady dealings.

As Miami
Children's and Jackson Memorial hospitals are urging legislators not to
cut their state money, they have doled out a total of $198,000 to former
House Speaker Marco Rubio and Viviana Bovo, the wife of
state Rep. Esteban ''Steve'' Bovo, to serve as consultants.

With his wife serving as treasurer, Rubio did not wait for the state to
authorize the committee before accepting campaign donations.

The committee listed its address as Rubio’s home, a modest place he and
his wife bought in West Miami in 2002, but reported spending nearly
$85,000 in office and operating costs and $65,000 for administrative
costs.

Over 18 months, nearly $90,000 went for political consultants, $51,000
went for credit card payments and $4,000 went to other candidates. That’s
less than the $5,700 that went to his wife, Jeanette, much of it for “gas
and meals.” (Mrs. Rubio does not work and the couple file joint tax
returns.)

Rubio reported raising more than $228,000 for that committee over 18
months, but he failed to disclose $34,000 in expenses as required by state
law.

In four elections between 2000 and 2006, Rubio faced only token
opposition. Yet he still spent nearly $670,000 in campaign funds for
political consulting, television advertising and other expenses, including
meals, travel and, in one case, $1,485 to the company leasing him a Jeep
Cherokee. Rubio’s campaign said it was justified because he drove it all
over his district.

A second political committee created by Rubio in late 2003, Floridians for
Conservative Leadership in Government, was to “educate the public about
conservative leadership in government.” The committee raised more than
$386,000, much of it going to Rubio’s political strategists and
consultants.

Other expenses included $14,000 incorrectly listed as “courier services”
that were in fact payments to Rubio’s relatives who he said were helping
with the committee’s political activities.

Rubio has insisted that the vast majority of those charges were for GOP
business, and he directly paid off any personal expenses, though after a
St. Petersburg Times/Miami Herald report, Rubio agreed to pay the party
$2,400 for plane tickets he said he mistakenly double-billed.

He has refused to release his party credit card records from 2005 and
2006.

Rubio is adamant his use of the political committees and credit cards is
above board and has denied reports that the IRS has opened an inquiry,
part of a widening look at Republican lawmakers who had credit cards.

Rubio’s years as House speaker were referred to as “Camelot” by a group of
admirers and fellow lawmakers (including Rivera) who called themselves his
“12
Disciples.”
And Rubio rewarded their loyalty with donor-funded trips (including to his
lavish family reunion in Georgia
— paid for on the party American Express card) and with hefty salaries,
like the $175,000 a year earned by his top aide, Richard Corcoran.

He also paved the way to opportunity.

A former aide,
Amber Stoner,
traveled frequently with Rubio in and out of state (and on his Republican
Party credit card) as the person Rubio put in charge of his
“100
ideas”
agenda — the laundry list of proposals to improve the state and country
that paved the way for Rubio’s reputation with conservatives as an idea
man.

A golden path, and troubled assets

Throughout
his career, Rubio’s path seemed to be paved with party gold. But Rubio has
seemed always to struggle with his personal finances. Despite receiving a
$69,000 post at Florida International University’s Metropolitan Center in
2008, and a lucrative job at the law firm Broad & Cassell, which paid him
$1.2 million over four years but where it wasn’t clear Rubio
ever saw any clients,
and a gig as a Univision on-air political analyst, Rubio listed his net
worth at just
$8,300
in 2010; he says due mostly to student loans.

Rubio has
recently faced questions over his
curious use of donor money,
spending huge sums on his party American Express card and not submitting a
bill payment for a six-month stretch during Jim Greer’s controversial
tenure as party chair (Greer is currently under
indictment
for grand theft.) This summer, a former supporter, GOP consultant Chris
Ingram, alleged Rubio used his party Amex to pay
for $4,000 kitchen remodel
in his house. The campaign shot back that Ingram is simply a disgruntled
non-hire, but they never took Ingram up on his offer to take a lie
detector test. And this month, TRR discovered that Rubio spent $1,500 in
U.S. Senate campaign funds on his sister-in-law’s
school charity.
Some have called it a pattern of behavior that fiscally-minded voters
ought to find troubling.

When Rubio
joined the Florida House of Representatives in 2000, he did not own a
home, had few possessions and made $72,000 as a lawyer.

But he had
$30,000 in “assorted credit and retail debt” (as described on his
financial disclosure form) and in 2001 listed $165,000 in loans from the
University of Florida and University of Miami Law School.

As Rubio
climbed the ranks, he began to use little-noticed political committees to
fund his travel and other expenses and later had a Republican Party of
Florida credit card.

What
emerged, records show, is a pattern of blending personal and political
spending. Over and over again Rubio proved sloppy, at best, in complying
with disclosure requirements.

Virtually
broke, the 31-year-old lawmaker began campaigning to be House speaker in
2003 and created a political committee — Floridians for Conservative
Leadership — to help elect other Republican candidates and curry their
support.

With his
wife serving as treasurer, Rubio did not wait for the state to authorize
the committee before accepting campaign donations.

The
committee listed its address as Rubio’s home, a modest place he and his
wife bought in West Miami in 2002, but reported spending nearly $85,000 in

Other
expenses included $14,000 incorrectly listed as “courier services” that
were in fact payments to Rubio’s relatives who he said were helping with
the committee’s political activities.

In 2005,
Rubio had access to a new source of campaign money: state GOP credit
cards. He charged more than $100,000 from November 2006 to November 2008,
much of it for travel expenses and meals.

Rubio has
insisted that the vast majority of those charges were for GOP business,
and he directly paid off any personal expenses, though after a St.

$2,400 for plane tickets he said he mistakenly double-billed.

like the $175,000 a year earned by his top aide, Richard Corcoran.

He also
paved the way to opportunity.

Who is this Amber Stoner?

Why would Rubio have a healthcare lobbyist’s travel on his credit charges?
And why do the two of them seem to show up in the same place (some resort
towns) the same day or within a day or two of each other? Can Rubio
explain why she travels for him? With him?

A former
aide,
Amber Stoner,
traveled frequently with Rubio in and out of state (and on his Republican
Party credit card) as the person Rubio put in charge of his “100
ideas”
agenda — the laundry list of proposals to improve the state and country
that paved the way for Rubio’s reputation with conservatives as an idea
man.

Here’s a list of dubious financial moves by Rubio, compiled by the
Herald-Tribune’s Anderson:

Arranging a $135,000 home credit line in 2006 from a bank controlled by
political supporters who valued his home at 25 percent above the purchase
price a month after the sale closed.

Rubio never made more than $96,000 as a lawyer. The year after becoming
speaker of the House for the 2007 and 2008 sessions he secured a job
making $300,000 per year at the politically connected state wide firm of
Broad & Cassel.

Rubio went in with David Rivera on the purchase of a $135,000 home in
Tallahassee. The house slipped into foreclosure briefly this year after
the two men failed to pay the mortgage for five months. They immediately
came up with $9,524 to make the foreclosure filing go away.

By the end of 2005, Rubio had three home mortgages, a home equity line of
credit, a car loan and more than $150,000 in student loans -- a total debt
load of $1,025,444.58. That same year, the Republican Party of Florida
gave Rubio a credit card to use at his discretion. In 2007 and 2008, Rubio
charged nearly $100,000 on his Republican Party credit card, mostly on
personal expenses.

Rubio admitted that he double-billed the Republican Party and the state of
Florida for airplane tickets. He repaid the party $2,400 for the tickets
after media reports.

Another questionable Rubio deal arose in May 2007, when he sold his first
home to Nora Cereceda. At the time of the sale, Cereceda's son --
chiropractor Mark Cereceda, who runs a chain of clinics -- was
aggressively lobbying Rubio over a state insurance issue. Nora Cereceda
paid $380,000 cash for the house, a $205,000 profit for Rubio at a time
when the market had begun to drop. The sale price was comparable to other
sales at the time, but the home value has since dropped in half, to
$215,403, according to the county property appraiser's website. Shortly
after Dr. Cereceda's mother purchased the home, Rubio removed the House's
block on the insurance provision and voted for it himself. The legislation
extended the state mandate that drivers purchase $10,000 worth of personal
injury insurance. Many of Dr. Cereceda's customers are injured drivers who
pay with insurance.

Questions about whether Rubio's political position helped him financially
came up again in 2008, when a term-limited Rubio was leaving the
Legislature and was planning his next move. Florida International
University announced Rubio had been hired to teach political science
classes and to do research part time for $69,000 per year. The job was
never publicly advertised. That year, the university cut 23 degree
programs and 200 jobs. Another 200 jobs were cut the following year.

Richard Freeman of Harvard, Michael Teitelbaum of the Alfred P. Sloan
Foundation, Paula Stephan of Georgia State University, Hal Salzman of
Rutgers, Lindsay Lowell of Georgetown, and Norman Matloff of the
University of California-Davis, have said for years that the US produces
ample numbers of excellent science students. In fact, according to the
National Science Board’s authoritative publication Science and
Engineering Indicators 2008, the country turns out three times as many
STEM degrees as the economy can absorb into jobs related to their majors.
